A. R. DENIKE
PIANO AND ORGAN BUSINESS, SAN JOSE, CALIFORNIA 1892
Well known in the piano and organ business in this city, was born in San
Francisco, July 10, 1860. For nearly twenty years he has been engaged in this
line of business, for the past ten in San Jose where he is well and favorably
known. There is no more thoroughly experienced piano or organ-tuner or repairer
in this city than Mr. Denike who has, from time to time, been connected with
some of the leading establishments of San Jose. He has recently become the
manager of the branch house of Benjamin Curtaz & Son of San Francisco, located
at 88 East Santa Clara street, and under his able management the new store will
undoubtedly prosper. This firm handles the famous Steck, Hardman, and also the
Vose pianos; the Farraud & Votey organs, and a full line of string and brass
brass musical instruments.
Their ware-rooms are commodious and present an attractive appearance, and once
each month a free concert of a high order is given to the public. Eminent
musicians from San Francisco are engaged for these entertainments, and they are
fully appreciated by the cultivated audiences which assemble to hear them. Mr.
Deniko is married, is the father of three children, has a pleasant home on
McLaughlin avenue, and other property in this city. When Messrs. Curtz & Son
established their new store, they selected the right man for the right place.
